The present invention relates to a catalytic material for the preparation of one or more of 4,4′-methylenedianiline, 2,2′-methylenedianiline, 2,4′-methylenedianiline, and oligomers of two or more thereof, the catalytic material comprising an oxidic support, wherein the oxidic support comprises an element EOS1 selected from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, Al, Si, and mixtures of two or more thereof, and further comprising a supported material supported on the oxidic support, wherein the supported material comprises an element ESM1 selected from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, V, Nb, Ta, Mo, W, Ge, Sn, Sc, Y, La, Ce, Nd, Pr, Hf, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pb and mixtures of two or more thereof. Further, the present invention relates in particular to a process for the preparation of a catalytic material and to a process for the preparation of one or more of 4,4′-methylenedianiline, 2,2′-methylenedianiline, 2,4′-methylenedianiline and oligomers of two or more thereof.
A catalytic material for use in the preparation of one or more of 4,4′-methylenedianiline, 2,2′-methylenedianiline, 2,4′-methylenedianiline, and oligomers of two or more thereof, the catalytic material comprising an oxidic support, wherein the oxidic support comprises titania, zirconia, alumina, or silica, and further comprising a supported material supported on the oxidic support, wherein the supported material comprises an element ESM1 selected from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, V, Nb, Ta, Mo, W, Ge, Sn, Sc, Y, La, Ce, Nd, Pr, Hf, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pb, and mixtures of two or more thereof, the catalytic material exhibiting a Brønsted acid site density of equal or less than 100 μmol/g, wherein the Brønsted acid site density is determined by pyridine adsorption using FTIR spectroscopy.
